Neither Mozart nor Strauss is much known for songs, but their pairing here, nicely framing the golden age of the German lied, succeeds in showing the virtues of both as song composers. Soprano Sabine Devieilhe has often taken up Mozart's music. She is new to Strauss, but she catches his Classical, or neo-Classical, side in the selections on this album, wisely avoiding heavier material. The elegant little structures of Mozart's songs seem to bloom into Strauss' more elaborate treatments of similar structures, and when Strauss does open up his range, as in the wildly flowery Amor, Devieilhe, known for her interpretation of the Queen of the Night's "Der Hölle Rache" in Die Zauberflöte, K. 620, is ready. Mozart, in turn, is ennobled by this program, with small melodic details emerging nicely in the work of Devieilhe and the lively and timbrally varied accompanist Mathieu Pordoy. The whole project has the feel of small treasures known to performers who take pleasure in sharing them, an impression reinforced by the photos of the pair in the graphics and also by the acoustic environment of a small hall at the Paris Opera. A delightful song recital that rightly made classical best-seller charts in the spring of 2024.

Album review
Neither Mozart nor Strauss is much known for songs, but their pairing here, nicely framing the golden age of the German lied, succeeds in showing the virtues of both as song composers. Soprano Sabine Devieilhe has often taken up Mozart's music. She is new to Strauss, but she catches his Classical, or neo-Classical, side in the selections on this album, wisely avoiding heavier material. The elegant little structures of Mozart's songs seem to bloom into Strauss' more elaborate treatments of similar structures, and when Strauss does open up his range, as in the wildly flowery Amor, Devieilhe, known for her interpretation of the Queen of the Night's "Der Hölle Rache" in Die Zauberflöte, K. 620, is ready. Mozart, in turn, is ennobled by this program, with small melodic details emerging nicely in the work of Devieilhe and the lively and timbrally varied accompanist Mathieu Pordoy. The whole project has the feel of small treasures known to performers who take pleasure in sharing them, an impression reinforced by the photos of the pair in the graphics and also by the acoustic environment of a small hall at the Paris Opera. A delightful song recital that rightly made classical best-seller charts in the spring of 2024.
